Ridge and Chantel, I just learned about your dear mother’s passing in January. I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a smart, sharp-witted, talented bright light when I knew her at StoneBridge School and our friendship through the intervening years was a blessing to me. I hope you and your family are comforted knowing she impacted many in her life. I know she is at peace being reunited with your dad and her mother.❤️😢 Betty
